Original: EU Estimates up to €17 Billion in Agricultural Losses from Heat and Drought

The European Union estimates that heat and drought have caused agricultural losses of up to €17 billion. The figure reflects damage to crop yields across member states hit by extreme summer weather. Farmers and policymakers are expected to debate compensation and longer-term adaptation measures as climate-related harvest losses grow across the bloc.
